[00:22.98] | I am tall and I am thin |
[00:26.48] | Of an enviable hight |
[00:30.17] | And I've been known to be quite handsome |
[00:34.29] | In a certain angle and in certain light |
[00:41.33] | Well I entered into O'Malley's |
[00:43.33] | Said, "O'Malley I have a thirst" |
[00:47.07] | O'Malley merely smiled at me |
[00:51.26] | Said "You wouldn't be the first" |
[00:58.13] | I knocked on the bar and pointed |
[01:00.25] | To a bottle on the shelf |
[01:02.94] | And as O'Malley poured me out a drink |
[01:07.68] | I sniffed and crossed myself |
[01:13.81] | My hand decided that the time was nigh |
[01:17.19] | And for a moment it slipped from view |
[01:20.69] | And when it returned, it fairly burned |
[01:24.50] | With confidence anew |
[01:30.25] | Well the thunder from my steely fist |
[01:33.81] | Made all the glasses jangle |
[01:37.51] | When I shot him, I was so handsome |
[01:41.32] | It was the light, it was the angle |
[01:46.32] | Huh! Hmmmmmm |
[02:13.88] | "Neighbours!" I cried, "Friends!" I screamed |
[02:15.32] | I banged my fist upon the bar |
[02:17.01] | "I bear no grudge against you!" |
[02:18.20] | And my dick felt long and hard |
[02:23.20] | "I am the man for which no God waits |
[02:26.20] | But for which the whole world yearns |
[02:29.90] | I'm marked by darkness and by blood |
[02:33.77] | And one thousand powder-burns" |
[02:38.53] | Well, you know those fish with the swollen lips |
[02:43.84] | That clean the ocean floor |
[02:46.85] | When I looked at poor O'Malley's wife |
[02:50.66] | That's exactly what I saw |
[02:53.15] | I jammed the barrel under her chin |
[03:00.09] | And her face looked raw and vicious |
[03:03.72] | Her head it landed in the sink |
[03:07.72] | With all the dirty dishes |
[03:13.34] | Her little daughter Siobhan |
[03:17.03] | Pulled beers from dusk till down |
[03:20.47] | And amongst the townfolk she was a bit of a joke |
[03:24.47] | But she pulled the best beer in town |
[03:30.97] | I swooped magnificent upon her |
[03:33.85] | As she sat shivering in her grief |
[03:37.40] | Like the Madonna painted on the church-house wall |
[03:41.28] | In whale's blood and banana leaf |
[03:50.35] | Her throat it crumbled in my fist |
[03:53.79] | And I spun heroically around |
[03:54.78] | To see Caffrey rising from his seat |
[03:57.35] | I shot that mother fucker down |
[03:58.78] | |
[04:03.09] | Mmmmmmmmmm Yeah Yeah Yeah |
[04:32.29] | "I have no free will", I sang |
[04:34.29] | As I flew about the murder |
[04:38.48] | Mrs. Richard Holmes, she screamed |
[04:41.48] | You really should have heard her |
[04:46.92] | I sang and I laughed, I howled and I wept |
[04:51.94] | I panted like a pup |
[04:54.71] | I blew a hole in Mrs. Richard Holmes |
[04:58.01] | And her husband stupidly stood up |
[05:04.25] | As he screamed, "You are an evil man" |
[05:07.12] | And I paused a while to wonder |
[05:10.94] | "If I have no free will then how can I |
[05:14.37] | Be morally culpable, I wonder" |
[05:21.50] | I shot Richard Holmes in the stomach |
[05:25.00] | And gingerly he sat down |
[05:28.00] | And he whispered weirdly, "No offense" |
[05:32.56] | And then lay upon the ground |
[05:41.50] | "None taken", I replied to him |
[05:44.25] | To which he gave a little cough |
[05:44.62] | With blazing wings I neatly aimed |
[05:48.68] | And blew his head completely off |
[05:52.25] | I've lived in this town for thirty years |
[05:58.89] | And to no-one I am a stranger |
[06:01.51] | And I put new bullets in my gun |
[06:05.39] | Chamber upon chamber |
[06:09.89] | And I turned my gun on the bird-like Mr. Brookes |
[06:18.35] | I thought of Saint Francis and his sparrows |
[06:21.62] | |
[06:25.69] | And as I shot down the youthful Richardson |
[06:27.38] | It was St. Sebastian I thought of, and his arrows |
[06:29.38] | Hhhhhhhhhh Mmmmmmmmmmmm |
[06:58.39] | I said, "I want to introduce myself |
[06:59.81] | And I am glad that all you came" |
[07:02.06] | And I leapt upon the bar |
[07:03.12] | And shouted out my name |
[07:07.50] | Well Jerry Bellows, he hugged his stool |
[07:11.12] | Closed his eyes and shrugged and laughed |
[07:14.43] | And with an ashtray as big as a fucking really big brick |
[07:19.00] | I split his head in half |
[07:22.94] | His blood spilled across the bar |
[07:28.24] | Like a steaming scarlet brook |
[07:31.00] | And I knelt at it's edge on the counter |
[07:38.19] | Wiped the tears away and looked |
[07:42.75] | Well, the light in there was blinding |
[07:49.06] | Full of God and ghosts of truth |
[07:54.75] | I smiled at Henry Davenport |
[07:55.42] | Who made an attempt to move |
[07:56.92] | Well, from the position I was standing |
[08:01.78] | The strangest thing I ever saw |
[08:04.46] | The bullet entered through the top of his chest |
[08:09.59] | And blew his bowels out on the floor |
[08:16.78] | Well I floated down the counter |
[08:19.65] | Showing no remorse |
[08:22.16] | I shot a hole in Kathleen Carpenter |
[08:25.28] | Recently divorced |
[08:26.41] | But remorse i felt and remorse I had |
[08:33.53] | It clung to every thing |
[08:36.98] | From the raven's hair upon my head |
[08:45.04] | To the feathers on my wings |
[08:56.11] | Remorse sqeezed my hand in it's fradulent claw |
[08:58.17] | With it's golden hairless chest |
[08:59.17] | And I glided through the bodies |
[09:00.73] | And killed the fat man Vincent West |
[09:05.61] | Who sat quietly in his chair |
[09:09.29] | A man become a child |
[09:12.04] | And I raised the gun up to his head |
[09:24.36] | Executioner-style |
[09:24.48] | He made no attempt to resist |
[09:26.11] | So fat and dull and lazy |
[09:30.48] | "Did you know I lived in your street?" I said |
[09:42.11] | And he looked at me as though I were crazy |
[09:47.36] | "O", he said, "I had no idea" |
[09:51.11] | And he grew as quiet as a mouse |
[09:52.86] | And the roar of the pistol when it went off |
[09:54.42] | Near blew that hat right off the house |
[10:17.42] | Hmmmmmm Uh Uh |
[10:27.05] | Well, I caught my eye in the mirror |
[10:30.74] | And gave it a long and loving inspection |
[10:34.55] | "There stands some kind of man", I roared |
[10:44.74] | And there did, in the reflection |
[10:52.68] | My hair combed back like a raven's wing |
[10:53.80] | My muscles hard and tight |
[10:54.49] | And curling from the business end of my gun |
[10:55.99] | Was a query-mark of cordite |
[11:00.05] | Well I spun to the left, I spun to the right |
[11:05.24] | And I spun to the left again |
[11:07.74] | "Fear me! Fear me! Fear me!" |
[11:08.86] | But no one did cause they were dead |
[11:14.05] | Huh! Hmmmmmmmmm |
[11:52.83] | And then there were the police sirens wailing |
[11:54.34] | And a bull-horn squelched and blared |
[11:55.52] | "Drop your weapons and come out |
[11:57.02] | With your hands held in the air" |
[12:04.77] | Well, I checked the chamber of my gun |
[12:07.15] | Saw I had one final bullet left |
[12:11.02] | My hand, it looked almost human |
[12:12.90] | As I raised it to my head |
[12:16.01] | "Drop your weapon and come out! |
[12:23.83] | Keep your hands above your head!" |
[12:27.29] | I had one one long hard think about dying |
[12:31.07] | And did exactly what they said |
[12:37.46] | There must have been fifty cops out there |
[12:40.77] | In a circle around O'Malley's bar |
[12:44.25] | "Don't shoot", I cried, "I'm a man unarmed!" |
[12:48.49] | So they put me in their car |
[12:54.77] | And they sped me away from that terrible scene |
[12:58.84] | And I glanced out of the window |
[13:01.34] | Saw O'Malley's bar, saw the cops and the cars |
[13:04.90] | And I started counting on my fingers |
[13:10.59] | Aaaaaah One Aaaaaah Two Aaaaaah Three Aaaaaaah Four |
